Anonymous Anonymous Unregistered	Don't "server based" rules follow the user? And if migrating to a new server, can't you use the Move Mailbox command or EXMERGE from the Resource Kit? Just throwing ideas out there. Not 100% sure myself!

jtokach jtokach Seasoned Scripter Registered: 2001-11-15 Posts: 513 Loc: PA, USA	The client side rules are held in C:\Documents and Settings\jtokach\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook (Obviously replace jtokach with the user's id) The .RWZ file contains the client side rules. If you have several, open the reg to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows Messaging Subsystem\Profiles The profile listed under defaultprofile is the profile that Outlook uses automatically when starting, if you don't have manual profile selection enabled. Otherwise, match the name of the profile to the proper .RWZ file. This file, along with the others in this dir can be copied to the new machine. However, if the new outlook profile has a different name, all of the files must be renamed to that profile name in order for Outlook to recognize them. Also note that if these files do not exist, outlook generates these files automatically with the proper names. Delete those and rename your files with those names. Hope that's what you're looking for. _________________________ -Jim ...the sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament.

Radimus Radimus Moderator Registered: 2000-01-06 Posts: 5187 Loc: Tampa, FL	specifically, I have an exported client rule, that I would like to 'deploy'/import to specific users. I can't overwrite the client files, as they may have additional custom rules. _________________________ How to ask questions the smart way <-----------> Before you ask

Kdyer Kdyer KiX Supporter Registered: 2001-01-03 Posts: 6241 Loc: Tigard, OR	Why have a client-side rule? I mean if you happen to switch to another workstation and you happen to select Server-Side rules, doesn't the system toss out the client-side?

Radimus Radimus Moderator Registered: 2000-01-06 Posts: 5187 Loc: Tampa, FL	regardless of it being client-side or server-side, is there a way to script the import and/or creation of a rule. _________________________ How to ask questions the smart way <-----------> Before you ask

Kdyer Kdyer KiX Supporter Registered: 2001-01-03 Posts: 6241 Loc: Tigard, OR	Rad, Did some digging.. Even in the VBA Editor in Outlook and pressing F2 to access the objects, don't see anything with regard to Rules. Automatic Message Processing We find some interesting things, even though it is not specifically what you are looking for. We want code! Filtering duplicates & blanks with date cut off Also, looked on through Candace Tripp on http://www.utteraccess.com - and specifically: http://www.utteraccess.com/forums/printthread.php?Cat=&Board=chat&main=98972&type=thread We find some interesting sites that may help. :\| http://codehound.com/ http://www.vb-faq.com/ And searches yield: http://www.vbcity.com/ http://www.vbforest.com - seems slow Kent _________________________ Utilize these resources: UDFs (Full List) KiXtart FAQ & How to's
